Complement C3dg-mediated erythrophagocytosis: Implications for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria [PDF]
The clinical management of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare but life-threatening hematologic disease, has fundamentally improved with the introduction of a therapeutic that prevents complement-mediated intravascular hemolysis. However, a

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria
A 66-year-old white man with a previously normal hematological history was studied for hemolysis during the recovery phase of acute tubular necrosis. He demonstrated a persistently worsening anemia in the absence of blood loss and had an increase of his serum-free hemoglobin. A hemolytic process consistent with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH)
